For a definition (of most linkage types), dso_local is set for ELF -fno-pic/-fpie
and COFF, but not for Mach-O. This nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
This patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `
if there is an explicit linkage.
* Clang will set dso_local for Mach-O, which is currently implied by TargetMachine.cpp. This will make COFF/Mach-O and executable ELF similar.
* Eventually I hope we can make dso_local the textual LLVM IR default (write explicit "dso_preemptable" when applicable) and -fpic ELF will be similar to everything else. This patch helps move toward that goal.
This patch updates IRBuilder to create insertelement/shufflevector using poison as a placeholder.

In looking into some other code, I came across this issue where a
float converted to a gcc integer vector via a splat causes it to miss
the float-to-integral cast, which causes some REALLY strange codegen
bugs.
The AST looked like:
`-ImplicitCastExpr <col:13>
'gcc_int_2':'__attribute__((__vector_size__(2 * sizeof(int)))) int' <VectorSplat>
`-ImplicitCastExpr <col:13> 'float' <LValueToRValue>
`-DeclRefExpr <col:13> 'float' lvalue ParmVar
0x556f16a5dc90 'f' 'float'
Despite the type of the VectorSplat cast as printed, it ended up
becoming a vector of float, which caused non-matching instructions. For
example, IntVector + a float constant resulted in:
add <2 x i32> %8, <2 x float> <float 3.000000e+00, float 3.000000e+00>
This patch corrects the conversion so that the float is first converted
to an integral, THEN splatted.
In {CG,}ExprConstant.cpp, we weren't treating vector splats properly.
This patch makes us treat splats more properly.
Additionally, this patch adds a new cast kind which allows a bool->int
cast to result in -1 or 0, instead of 1 or 0 (for true and false,
respectively), so we can sanely model OpenCL bool->int casts in the AST.
